For 35 years, HealthyWomen has been educating, engaging & inspiring women. There’s never been a more relevant time to share information about WomensHealth, & being a go-to resource is an honor we haven’t taken lightly at any time during the past 35 years.
HealthyWomen’s original founder, Violet Bowen-Hugh, M.D., was a force of nature. Born and raised in Clendenin, West Virginia, Bowen-Hugh came from an underprivileged background, which inspired her to create a place where women, no matter their socioeconomic status, had access to reliable health information. As an academically gifted woman who graduated at the top of her class, Bowen-Hugh was the first woman in her family to complete high school.
It was this advocacy that alerted Bowen-Hugh to the lack of scientifically accurate information about women’s healthcare needs, which led to the creation of the National Women’s Health Resource Center in 1988. The NWHRC realized Bowen-Hugh’s dream of providing women with medically vetted, trusted information about their healthcare concerns and to answer questions about diagnoses and provide tips for healthy living.
During the day, Battaglino worked as part of this health resource for women, and she studied to be a registered nurse at night. Over time, the organization flourished and began branching out into new ways to inform its target audience. One of its most popular offerings was the National Women’s Health Report, a bimonthly newsletter, which focused on health conditions unique to women.

Canadian Police Hunt for Suspects After 10 Stabbed to DeathCanadian police are searching for two men suspected of stabbing 10 people to death in an Indigenous community and a nearby town. The attacks was one of the nation’s deadliest mass killings. The massive manhunt entered its second day Monday. Authorities have said some of the victims were targeted and others appeared to have been chosen at random. The series of attacks took place on the James Smith Cree Nation and in the village of Weldon in Saskatchewan province. Officials have given no motive for the crimes, but a senior Indigenous leader suggested drugs were somehow involved. Police believe the suspects were last spotted around midday on Sunday in the provincial capital of Regina. That’s about 335 kilometers south of where the stabbings happened.
